I was at the A.P.C. store in Soho yesterday and the manager told me that A.P.C. will take half off the price towards your next pair of jeans, which in this case was $185 for their raw selvedge denim. So if you bring in 2 pairs you can walk out with a free pair. The interesting thing was they resell the worn jeans for more then they sell the unworn jeans which was somewhere around $250. Just some food for thought for those of you who have A.P.C. jeans but were unaware of their buy back policy....

What the hell happened to NS sizing? I just got a pair in the post, size 30, same as I have been wearing for about a year. The new pair is the same size, or larger, in almost every dimension than my stretched-out current ones!

Going by the measurement chart on context, it seems there is no reduction in the thigh measurement until I drop to 28. For someone with an actual 32 inch waist this seems ridiculous, can anybody comment? How do I get a pair the same size my old 30s are?
